In addition, it was learned that the issue of the additional reinforcement of the contingent of the UN Multidisciplinary Integrated Stabilization Mission in the Central African Republic (MONUSCA) is being resolved through the transfer of part of the peacekeeping forces of the UN Mission in Sudan from the south. Rwandan troops are also reported to have been dispatched to the Central African Republic.
It was previously reported that on December 19, armed rebels from the anti-government Coalition of Patriots for Change took control of the city of Mbaiki, located about 100 kilometers from the city of Bangui, the capital of the Central African Republic.
The actions of the rebels are associated with the presidential and parliamentary elections to be held on December 27. The leader of the group is considered the former president of the Central African Republic Francois Bozize. The current authorities accuse him of attempting a coup.
